PGA Tour, LIV Golf Tour Set to Merge
Aug 13, 2023
(Ponte Verdra Beach, FL) -- The P-G-A Tour and LIV Golf will merge.
The deal will see the end of pending litigation. The Saudi-backed LIV Golf disrupted the golf world by offering big paydays to lure golfers like Phil Mickelson away from the P-G-A Tour. The P-G-A responded by revoking the tour cards of golfers who competed in LIV Golf. The once-rivals will now combine into a new, yet-to-be-named company.
The agreement also includes the D-P World Tour, known as the European P-G-A Tour. The three groups will create a fair and objective process for any players that want to re-apply for membership with the P-G-A Tour or DP World Tour after the 2023 season.
